Bethesda On Dishonored: 'We Clearly Have A New Franchise'

Dishonored sold pretty well in the U.S. during its debut month. It seems like we'll see another game sometime in the future as Bethesda says, "We clearly have a new franchise."

Speaking to Destructoid, Bethesda VP of PR Pete Hines said the game saw a huge boost in sales during Black Friday last week and continues to do well in other territories."I can tell you that Dishonored is far exceeding our sales expectations, which is especially cool considering it’s new IP facing a host of well-established franchises this quarter," he said.

"We did terrific numbers again this past weekend, both in stores and on Steam, where Dishonored was listed as the #1 selling title over the holiday weekend. And Dishonored has really sold well overseas.

"So, we’re very pleased and appreciate all the fans that have supported Dishonored and Arkane. We clearly have a new franchise."
